9 The shiny - dot -
textured main grille protrudes from the base surface as well, making the nose recall past grand prix racers.
Subtle design details include a new five - bar design for the polished
alloy main grille, as well as two additional vents in the enlarged power bulge on the carbon - fibre bonnet.
The horizontal bars behind
the main grille are replicated at the same pitch in the corner inlets.
The RS500 had an extra vent below
the main grille that the regular three - door Sierra RS Cosworths didn't have.
The kink - and - straight element shows up throughout, though
the main grille bars are curved in plan.
In the center of
the main grille is a relatively large Chevy Bowtie emblem.
Gone is the honeycomb grille and enter in a three bar
main grille and a two bar lower grille.
Externally, the 1971 99 could be differentiated by the two rectangular grilles beneath
the main grille.
The most notable change is a matte - aluminum low - profile radiator grille crossbar that extends into the wagon's headlights, complementing the Alltrack badging radiating from
its main grille.
The chrome - colored design fills
the main grille opening and a second opening below the bumper.
While
the main grille doesn't have the honeycomb mesh seen on RS models, the side vents in the bumper do have a similar layout.
The main grille would also sport a thick horizontal slat and an «SVR» badge, while the side intakes would be bigger and sport a slightly different shape.
Visually, the design team carried the C 63 AMG Cabriolet's
main grille and tail elements across from the Coupe, including its deep front splitter and quad exhaust tips.
The side vents will grow in size quite noticeably and, much like
the main grille, will get a honeycomb mesh.
The main grille remains similar to the standard model, but it's now finished in black, while the «S» logo has copper accents.
The thin opening under
the main grille will become trapezoidal and will be backed by a splitter - type element.
Notice how the lower trapezoidal grille has shrunk in size and how
the main grille has taken on that shape.
